| - I was scanning Yelp! for a dinner place for me and one of my team members from work. We are staying in the Marriott Courtyard Hotel on René Levesque in downtown Montreal. It was raining and I didn't want to walk too far so this place looked like a good opportunity. Wow, what a find!
We got a pitcher of blind ale on tap to start with, then went for entrees. Since it has a rep as having the "best pizza in Montreal" I thought I'd get a #32 - cheese, tomato, ham, and some other stuff. Thin-crusted, crispy greatness! My partner got a "Volcano" calzone which has some meats and a bit of spice to it. He said it was not quite as spicy as he had thought from the description, but it was still delicious anyways. Beer was great, too.
Service was fast and friendly. They picked up that we are not French speakers before we had a chance to speak. Our orders cooked up quickly - almost surprisingly so- despite the full house. Tables are set tightly, as you'd find in Europe. Lots of local folks, I think, which is one of the reasons I had good vibes when we walked in. There is a lot of great food in Montreal, and the scene is competitive.
We didn't try the veggie options, but they have some. Not vegan, but meat free. We are gonna tell our Indian folks on the team about it.
We have a few days here for a conference. I could come here again.
